This is a bilingual hardcover edition of "Rosie's Walk / El Paseo de Rosie" by Pat Hutchins, published by Simon & Schuster (Aladdin Paperbacks/Libros Colibri) in 1968. The book measures 8.25" x 10.25" x 0.25" and contains 32 pages.
The narrative follows Rosie the hen as she takes a walk, oblivious to the fox pursuing her. The text is presented in both English and Spanish, with parallel phrases such as "Rosie the hen went for a walk" and "La gallina Rosie salió de paseo." The book introduces prepositions in both languages, including "sobre" (over), "debajo" (under), "alrededor de" (around), and "a través de" (through). The illustrations provide visual reinforcement of the vocabulary.
The illustrations depict Rosie's journey through the farmyard, including her passage over a haystack, around a pond, past a mill, and through other obstacles. The fox's unsuccessful pursuit is also visually represented. The book was designated an ALA Notable Book in 1968.
